Last friday evening. between and .
O'Clock. Mr.. A. S. Trout, accompanied BY
Officer Nicklas, called at the residence OF

under false pretenses. Mr.. Trout made the
necessary affidavit, the warrant Was issued
and placed in the hands Of Officer Nicklas,
who arrested LOebeck . short time after

1t seems that Loebeck was one Of the
proprietors Of the Eby house. on west
Washington street, and desiring to leave
Springfield. sold his interest In the hotel to
Trout for 5000. agreeing to clear his inter
est in the house from debt. Trout alleges
that Loebeck left town without settling the

Loebsck returned to Springfield last night,

BRICK.

Mr.. s. A. Day, now OF Kannopolis, but
formerly Of Fl Scott, is in the city intro
ducing to the architects and builders some
brick which he is making at Kannopolis. He
says that the Wichita & Colorado is building
into his town which is fourteen miles north
of Genesee which will give direct communl-
cation to Wichita. As Wichita is the great
building city of the state and today using
more brick than any city of the state ne
comes here to introduce his goods.
His plant cost nearly 0,COO and gives
daily output of $4,000 brick. He makes red
and white brick and terra Gotta. The vein
Of clay for the latter is near six feet deep;
the vein for red brick fifteen feet thick, and
for white brick an eight foot vein. The clay
for the red and white brick is near the plant
and the clay for the terra Gotta is over mile
from the plant
Mr.. LAY will remain in the city few days
looking over the building boom, and says the
Wichita & Colorado line will reach his town
by the middle of next month when he will be
seen i'm Wichita quite frequently.

BACK TO WICHITA.

Mr. William Kassel and family returned
yesterday from visit of some months east
They spent several weeks in New England
and New York and also visited Iowa, ILL
nois, Wisconsin and Michigan. He brings
the regular news from the east concerning
the corn crop and drouth. In many sections
in each state through which he passed the
drouth was strong enouth to be fatal to the
corn crop. In some pieces people were haul
ing water for miles for stock and house use
As result of the drouth the water was in
many sections heavily charged with impuri-
ties and sickness resulted. The people were
becoming more and more discouraged. He
said that the sections in Kansas suffering
from the drouth were not injured near as
much as those he saw on his trip farther east

COUNCIL s ESSION.

The city council held meeting yesterday
forenoon to consider some very important
business. 1t was an adjourned meeting and
all members were present excepting Healy,
Harris and Simison. The object Of the
meeting was explained by his honor the may
or, which was to consider the question of
selling bonds for paying for the Topeka ave-
nue. sewer. The assistant city attorney,
Campbell, had reduced to writing an opinion
on the subject and read the same, which took
him near half hour. He took the position
that the city could legally sell the bonds and
thus raise the needed money in that way.
When Mr. Campbell had given his opinion
the question was discussed rather extensively
by the council but no action was taken
The Wichita Construction company is not
crowding the city for part payment on the
work as called for in the contract and it
seems that it will be two weeks before the
matter will be settled

OVER So, 600 AL READY.

His honor, the police judge, has SO far this
month COLI cted from the various sources
open to his court $1,000. The most ever col
lected on any previous month is 1850 95.
AS will be seen already this month he has
more money than has ever been collected in
a whole month. 1t is thought that the end
Of this month will find collections amounting
to between four and five thousand dollars.
The great source from which the city
treasury is being replenished is from the
"vags." Formerly that class was rather
unprod uctive element, but Of late are
coughing up" in elegant style. The term
"vag" has been construed in such way that
it includes all who are engaged in unlawful
permits. Those of that class have been
called upon quite frequently Of late, and as a
rule it takes less than three of them to make
deposit Of 500.

THE MONSTER CIRCUS NEXT WEEK.

Doris & Colvin's Colossal Show Will only
exhibit one day in Wichita, Monday, August
18th The grandeur of the street parade and
the elegance and variety of the entertain
ment has met with approval and wonder in
all the cities visited drought the state Of
Kansas.
Doris & Colvin have in connection with the
great show one of the most excitable and in.
teresting acts ever seen in circus. The
"OEly Leon" rides and drives at each perfor-
nance thirty-one elegant Arabian horses
around the race track and should not be
missed.
Doris & Colvin will introduce to their aud
fence William Dtton, the champion bareback
rider of the world, in his great double somer-
sault on his swift Arabian horse Lucky"
the fines4 animal ever seen in a circus.
Captain Elmer E. Stubs, "The Restless
SPIRIT of the Plains" the champion rife,
revolver and general shot of the world, who
leads the mimic encounter, the thrilling por-
trayal of the Custer battle, the struggle and
defeat of the ga liant Custer the ambuscade,
the fortress, etc.
California Frank, the most noted cowboy
ever seem He rides wild Texas steers and
bronco horses just from the plains and is one
of the greatest features of the show.
The meneragerie in addition to the other
attractions, has a doubie-humped White
Sacred Camel, and the greatest OF all won
ders, a pair of beautiful horses; sixte feet
and have sixteen iron shoes on, that all can
see for themselves.
The wonderful elephant 140 years old isn't
seen every day, but old "Bess" is there and
her record of years number 140. The lions,
tigers, hyenas, sea cow, sacred cattle, albino
and other species of American deer are all
interesting sights to those unfamiliar with
them; all are well worthy Of the required
time to inspect them.

SUPERINTENDENT LAwHEAD TALKS.

State Superintendent of Schools Lawhead
was in the city yesterday on official business
He says he is kept busy at institute work and
looking up troubles over school lands. lie
reports more trouble coming from the north
west part of the state than from any other
section. A question has been introduced re-
latipg to the subject that has not been de-
c;ded. On the decision rests quite number
of cases in the state. Where fraudulent en-
tries have been made and the land afterwards
sold, whether the land can be reclaimed by
the state, is the question in dispute Ii 1t Is
decided that the land can be reclaimed by
the state, over thirty land owners In Ness
county alone will lose their property
Mr.. Lawhead stated that Ness county was
more prolific Of trouble over school lands
than any county In the state. In that coun-
ty Nebraska company operated in proving
up lands by hired employees, and also COM
PAW from Iowa They had operated exten-
siyely in that and adjoining counties. and he
proposed to save the state as much land as
really. belonged to it.
Mr.. Lawhead left last evening for Topeka

A RUN WAY.

Yesterday Johnny Winters, young pro-
duce peddler, had quite disastrous runaway
on North Fifth avenue. 1t was usually his
habit to go up the avenue on the west side Of
the track, but wishing to shorten the dis
lance he took the east side. His team, two
frey young horses, were not familiar with
the route. Johnny had gone but a short dis
lance when he turned around but had no
sooner done so than the horses, already
frightened, saw new terror in the advanc-
ing yard engine. They commenced plung-
ing, and broke the tongue, then upset the
wagon and freed themselves from the wreck
they had made. Young Winters was
thrown out and quite badly injured on the
shoulder and right leg. The wagon was q
complete wreck and the harness badly torn ::
the horses were but slightly injured.

FRAUDULENT BONDS,

A gentleman who for some time has been a
county official stated yesterday that a few
days ago something came to light which is
likely to bring trouble in the camp.
In IA bonds calling for $1,000 on school
district No. 90 were sold to ST. Louis firm,
due in ten years from date. The record as
stated by him shows that in "a no such school
district had been organized. 1t was not until
VI, three years after, that school district No.
30 was organized.
The bonds of IA, as issued ami signed by
the county clerk, are in the hands of prom
inent law firm of this city with instructions
to bring suit against some one for amount of
the same. As the bonds are fraudulent it
seems that some of the county officials of
that date-'74-will probably be called upon
for an explanation
